Inhibiting the Laydown of Polymeric Carbon and Simultaneously Promoting Its Facile Burn-Off during the Industrial-Scale Production of Hydrogen with Nickel-Based Catalysts: Insights from Ab Initio Calculations

This paper presents a computational study of the mechanistic models for the laydown of carbon species on nickel surface facets and the burn-off models for their gasification mechanism in methane steam reforming based on density functional theory. Insights into catalyst design strategies for achievin...
